Product Information
Full details
The Asics Gel-Excite 11 trainers are versatile athletic shoes designed for adult male runners and gym enthusiasts who prioritize comfort and flexibility. Featuring the innovative AmpliFoam+ midsole technology, these trainers provide a cushioned, responsive feel that excels during daily exercise routines; however, they are optimized for neutral gait patterns and may not offer the structural support required for severe overpronation.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for heavy weightlifting?
While stable enough for general fitness, the soft AmpliFoam+ midsole is designed for running impact. For heavy powerlifting, a flatter, firmer sole is usually recommended.
Can I use these for trail running?
The Gel-Excite 11 is designed primarily for road and gym use; the outsole may not provide adequate grip on loose dirt or rocky terrain.
How long should the cushioning last?
Typically, the foam and support integrity will provide optimal performance for 300 to 500 miles of use, depending on your running style and weight.
Do these run true to size?
Yes, they follow standard UK sizing conventions. We recommend using your standard trainer size.
Can I replace the insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the provided insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if necessary.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping at the heel
Try using the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to secure the ankle collar against your foot.
Accumulation of dust in the mesh
Use a dry, soft-bristle brush to gently work debris out of the mesh weave without damaging the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, start by confirming your size—these follow standard adult UK sizing for a snug, performance-oriented fit. When lacing, ensure a secure lock-down without over-tightening to maintain circulation. For care, avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can degrade the foam integrity and glue bonds. Instead, remove loose dirt with a soft brush and clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Always air-dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the shape and cushioning properties of the midsole.
